It’s not the x= sh that bothers me. It’s the “lotl” = “too” that makes no sense.
- Comment on A hypothesis 1 week ago:
“discluded”
🤣
- Comment on You are not prepared 1 week ago:
I do prefer pronouncing axolotl phonetically to rhyme with Aristotle.
But I guess this kinda makes me curious about the Nahuatl language, why would they use the roman alphabet if they’re just gonna change the pronunciation of every letter into some unrelated nonsense 😵💫
- Comment on You are not prepared 1 week ago:
Yeah but the guy in that YouTube tutorial seemed like he was implying that everybody should pronounce it correctly according to its language origin 🤷🏼♀️
- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 1 week ago:
It’s not the kids who choose. They say “trick or treat” because if you don’t give them a treat, they will trick you. By vandalizing your house. That’s the tradition.

don’t get why some people have a problem with that.
I have bipolar disorder. I see doctors for this. Saturday October 25th I took a shower and I went to work. Next day I went to work too. That night I drove 2 hours to prepare for an athletic event on Monday morning. I did the athletic event which took all day and then I went to bed. I was in bed from Tuesday to Friday. Friday morning I finally took a shower again.

Ok then mental sports need to have their own separate Olympics.
Because Olympics originated as a competitive showcase of the world’s peak physical prowess.
- Comment on I Ate: Burrito. Am I happy now? 1 week ago:
My only problem is that I’m obsessed with health & fitness.
I choose not to adapt to a sick obese society.
And if that makes me an outlier and you think I need to be medicated in order to conform to all the fat slobs in the world,
Then let’s just please never meet. I’m frolicking at a nude beach right now and you probably wouldn’t feel comfortable here.

Learn from that skeleton. He learned too late. Live to read. Read to live.
- Comment on Is it just me or the food shows like Man v Food or Everything on The Menu or hot dog eating contests annoy anyone else knowing the fact people are starving in the states and world wide? 1 week ago:
People aren’t starving in the states. There’s already been major backlash & preemptive preventative response to the SNAP debacle. Food banks are mega stocking up. Some states are digging into financial reserves to provide uninterrupted SNAP benefits.
- Comment on I Ate: Burrito. Am I happy now? 1 week ago:
If anime girl keeps eating like that and equates burritos with happiness, imagine her surprise in a few years when she sees you-are-what-you-eat becomes a reality. Her cute happy youthful face becomes saggy & puffy and her whole body becomes permanently bloated & chubby. She no longer feels like & free & sexually attractive in her body which lowers her self-esteem and narrows her pool of dating prospects. In her diminished state, she seems dopamine solace & love in the comfort of burritos. She becomes alone and all she can ever find comfort in are burritos for the rest of her life.

Tangential thought on mating calls:
Imagine when I’m alone & sexually frustrated I just step outside and let out shrill continuous screeching bursts of noise until a man descends upon me and inserts his penis into my vagina.
Wouldn’t life be so much easier this way?
Why must humans make mating such a complex psychological game involving money & cosmetics & material possessions & status & mental manipulation

Nature is savage.
Humans are part of nature too.

Axolotl doesn’t rhyme with Aristotle?
- Comment on You are not prepared 1 week ago:
It’s quite funny.
- Comment on Michael 1 week ago:
I agree with the two guys on the right.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 1 week ago:
I think she liked the number nine because 9 months pregnancy so she used the number 9 for everything in her hypothetical scenario
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 1 week ago:
She’s giving that one man an awful lot of credit assuming he can shoot a bullseye 9 times a day 365 days a year.
- Comment on What do they do with aborted fetuses? 1 week ago:
Jeez, the level of stoicism, emotional detached-ness the hospital workers must master. I also imagine they would delegate the task to someone else so it’s not like the doctor is throwing fetus in the trash, he delegates it to someone else who does not have all the information and does not know what they’re disposing of. Less emotionally traumatizing for everybody that way.
- Comment on WTF BIT ME? 1 week ago:
Smallest UFO landing ever.
- Comment on Just FYI 1 week ago:
When I use those phrases I’m indicating uncertainty, so really, PLEASE correct me if I’m wrong.
- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 1 week ago:
Wow yeah that was the same year 😳 I saw the Challenger disaster on the news in January when I lived in Colorado, then the Chernobyl disaster I saw on TV on the news when I lived in California that summer.
1986 was a Colorado-California year for me.
- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 1 week ago:
Honestly the earliest TV news memory I have is seeing heavy news coverage of John Lennon’s murder.
- Comment on During the lead up to the Holocaust did the N... regime just kidnap people who they even thought were Jews? Kind of like ICE is doing to citizens today? 1 week ago:
Oh yeah we need to allow extra leeway for stupidity in this community.
- Comment on card game shop 1 week ago:
Yeah every once in awhile if I’m in a certain position I catch a whiff of myself and it isn’t good.
I had a dream last night that I wandered into a cozy dormitory-like situation for the mentally ill and all I wanted was to find the shower room but the dream ended before I made it that far but I saw so many familiar friendly faces & everyone was warm & welcoming.
In my dreams people are so real & genuine & we all get each other.

Halloween candy is ridiculously expensive the last few years. I refuse to participate.
🫸🏼 🫷🏼
The word “refuse” suggested these hand emojis that look like bookends to me because tiny emojis are difficult to see on the non-zoom-in-able Lemmy interface I use.
- Comment on citacion 1 week ago:
Just ask a parking enforcement officer to write a ticket and tuck it under the windshield wipers. A citation for the Citation. Then take a picture and add it to the Chevrolet Citation Wikipedia page. A citation for the Wikipedia page on the Chevrolet Citation.
- Comment on Germany 1 week ago:
I like how they had to write the word Germany over his flag to make sure no one mistook it for Italy or Mexico.
- Comment on Be that as it may, your bikes still suck. 1 week ago:
I’ll never forget the time 3 years ago I urgently needed to rent one of these because my feet & hips & back were throbbing in pain after walking a bazillion miles and I still had a bazillion miles left to reach my destination, so I went through the process of installing their app and giving them all my personal data and then they wanted $10 up front for God knows what, only to find that all the bikes within my radius none of them were charged or available for use. I want my $10 back. I’m still livid about that and whenever I see these bikes & scooters strewn about the city I don’t even register them into my consciousness. They are all dead to me.
- Comment on Is it wrong that I want one? 1 week ago:
inherits? Is that really the right verb?
How about “elicits”?
